A few words from Jake:
Well what can i say, it was good just to win car of the month, let
alone to get car of the year. As most of you'll know im mad about cars, I go through enough of them
. Cars are both my passion and my
livelyhood. UK-MKIVs for has helped both grow, i started out
searching for a forum for my new car, back then a standard aum golf
gti and it didn't take long til I found you lot, and the rest is
history.... I feel I'm part of an online family who are willing to help
people they know.
On a business point of view, we started advertising on the forum
about a month or so ago, and while things like this take time we are
steadily growning in the VW scene and have done numerous cars off the forum,
tagging in the remapping too makes it even better as i get to go out in
lots of different vag cars lol
I'd just like to say a massive thank you to those who have voted for
me, although I dont have my car (I'm still kicking my self - bloodly
subaru). I'm always going to be around the vw scene. I'd also like to say
a huge thank you to the guys at uk-mivs too for allowing me to be part
of the forum and advertising our business too, and finally a thank you
to all those who have supported my business, esp in the current climate
of uncertant.
